SGI Logistics Expands Partnership with Crystal Group to Support Indonesia's Increasing Spending on Defense Equipment from France

SGI Logistics Expands Partnership with Crystal Group, has established a strategic partnership to support the bilateral trade activities between Indonesia and France, particularly in the defense technology industry. This partnership is driven by the Defense Cooperation Agreement (DCA) signed by the defense ministers of Indonesia and France, which has led to increasing defense cooperation between the two countries. As a result, the Indonesian government has significantly increased its spending on defense equipment budget from France. Indonesia recently completed the purchase of Rafale fighter jets from Dassault Aviation, GCI radar from Thales, missiles from MBDA, weapon systems from Nexter, military cargo aircraft A400 from Airbus, and expecting Scorpene-class submarine procurement from Naval Technology, and many more.
